Just powerful enough to keep themselves from accountability, not powerful enough to hold themselves accountable. Hell of a setup.
SMU gets the death penalty, while UT, OU and the rest of the Southwest Conference get off scot free.
UNC gets a slap on the wrist for athletic department-wide academic cheating.
Bill Self gets caught knee deep in an illegal (not like against NCAA rules illegal, like federal RICO conspiracy illegal) scheme that involved a major non-US company and fundamentally undermined competition in recruiting across D1. What did he sit out a couple games and that's it?
